Don't make your strokes about
Leaving a mark you wished you'd live without
Go make your jokes about
Some token trophy scar and how you got it
In the time allotted
Until it goes away

A know it all sings after all
But I won't sing anything
Let me paraphrase my troubled days
And live like nothing has changed

I always coax you and I
A little chance to sway
Some more little lies
I know everything that needs to be known
I'm not afraid anymore

A know it all sings after all
But I won't sing anything
Let me paraphrase my troubled days

A know it all sings after all
But I won't sing anything
Let me paraphrase my better days
And live like nothing has changed
